2020 Suburban Transmission Issues
Good evening to all of you. I'm asking for some advice. My wife's 2020 Suburban LT 4wd 5.3L stopped after driving about 30 seconds from home. I got a P0700 error code. It would go about 50 feet or so and then stop. It just came acted like it came out of gear and slowed to a stop. After several times of shutting the vehicle off. I managed to make it back home. It had fluid in it. It only has 104k miles on the transmission. A mechanic that looked at it says it may be the transmission control module. The error code indicates that if I understand the code correctly.
It appears that for this model it may be a transmission control valve body? I am not quite sure if it's located on the side of the transmission, or if it's inside the transmission, maybe access through the drain pan? I may consider installing it myself, but it appears the module has to be programmed, unless I purchase one already programmed. Can I drive it to the mechanic to get it programmed? Or will it not drive at all until it's programmed?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks to all.
